Greetings,

I HAD FreeBSD 2.0.5 (Walnut Creek CDROM Release) installed on my PCs
previous incarnation when I went and upgraded the motherboard. I also
decided to repartition my main HDD and give BSD a bit more room.

FreeBSD ran fine after the board upgrad but before the repartition.

Anyway, when I ran install the first time off the CD, it went through
all the questions and paniced when it came time to actually format the
new partitions.  NOW it probes all the devices, clears the screen and
THEN panics.  The panic message is "panic: integer divide error".  When
I press <ALT-F2> I get the following:

Fatal trap 18: integer divide fault while in kernel mode
instruction pointer     = 0x87:0xf0105480
code segment            = base 0x0, limit 0xfffff, type 0x1b
                        = DPL 0, pres 1, def32 1, gran 1
processor eflags        = interrupt enabled, resume, IOPL = 0
interrupt mask          =


My new mother board, has at the top of the manual 

25/33/40/50/66/75/100MHz
80486 VL Turbo Main Board
    MB

-1425UIV
-1433UIV   +-picture-+ 
-1440UIV   +---here--+
-1450UIV

The board it's self

486DX4-100 chip
AMI Bios
UMC Chipset
256KB chache
16MB 30pin RAM

Any ideas greatly apreciated.

Mark
